#NSTviral: Content creator apologises for PR stunt of giving bones to homeless man
KUALA LUMPUR: A content creator who came under fire after releasing a video showing him and two friends giving leftover KFC bones to a homeless man as a meal has apologised for what he claims to be a stunt. The offending video, which has since been taken down, showed the trio eating KFC chicken and then placing the bones into another meal before giving it to the homeless man. "This chicken bone is such a waste. We should not waste food. We decided to 'donate' this chicken bone to those in need. So today, we want to do something kind," said one of them. They later approached a homeless man and offered him the meal. The homeless man initially expressed his gratitude by saying that he only eats a little, but was shocked when he opened the package to find that there are chicken bones. Nevertheless, the man was grateful. The video was posted on Instagram reels last night and went viral. User bobo_nuoya tagged the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC), suggesting that their act can be investigated under Section 504 of the Penal Code, intentional insult with intent to provoke a breach of the peace, and can lead to a maximum two years' jail or a fine or both. Thread user cken_daily.psd reposted the video while tagging MCMC and the police, saying "I hope MCMC and the police will launch an investigation into them!" However, the content creator today posted a apology video, explaining that the video was done in collaboration with the homeless man and that they had provided him with an actual meal later. "Our original intention was to help people in society. Please give us a better chance to give back to the community. We will do more good deeds later to help the homeless. So, I'm really sorry everyone," he said. Despite the clarification and apology, the video was not received well by netizens and other content creators. Content creator ashleylimjinq said "the fact that they're willing to 'act' something that humiliates another person, that itself clearly indicates something is wrong." Content creator charlest33 said they had insulted the homeless man's dignity, even though it was all just an act.
